Of the Fans?

Lol...just wait a day until the gear really starts piling up...it'll be a regular drool fest I promise.

But I suppose 512 CFM is worth a look

Pics in a bit.

FrozenCPU ran out of these fans for a while.

Hmmm unlike the last ones these are not rated at 24V...I wonder if they are the sam windings or not....

I think the last one said 24V at 1.1 amp...I'll have to look through my pictures and see.

I have large hands...this fan is gigantic...

Finger Guards are mandatory.

The fan motors feel different too.When I spin the blades the magnetic field is very notchy and the blade doews not spin as freely. I hope these fans perform as well or I will be sending them back. Time to find a 12V power source...

I also wonder if they will run at 24V or not. I need to get with FrozenCPU and check this out.

Here's the one I got last time: different badging and 24V 1.42A I believe although it's hard to read.

I hate it when you order something and get something other than what you expect.

Hmmm just tested one with a wall wort 12V 1A power converter and they are definitely not the sam fans at all. These run much much faster at 12V thatn theone I put in Antesignani's cooler and are much much louder...

Tomorrow I'll dig out my rheostats and see if they are up to the task of taming this beast. I don't think I could tolerate these at full tilt for long...
